WIRING AND INSTALLATION
The keypads can be surface mounted directly to drywall, or to a single- or double-gang electrical box.
- Push the two case release snaps at the bottom of the keypad with the blade of a medium screwdriver (this will push in the release snap), then pull that side of the case back away. Insert the screwdriver in the side of the keypad (between the front and back case) and gently twist to release the side locking tab. Repeat for the other side. Refer to Figure 1 for the location of the case back release snaps and locking tabs.
- Route wiring from the control panel through the opening in the case back.
- Mount the case back to a wall or electrical box.
- Wire directly from the keypad’s terminal block to the terminal block on the control panel. (See Wiring Table below).
NOTE: No more than one wire per terminal may be connected. If the daisy-chained configuration is required, pig-tail wires together so that only one wire is terminated under the screw. Use 14-22 AWG wire only!

SETTING THE KEYPAD ADDRESS
The keypad can either be set for an address of 00-30, or to the non-addressable mode (31). The keypad’s default address is 31.
To change the keypad’s address, do the following:
- Enter address mode: Power up the keypad. Within 60 seconds of power-up, press and hold down the [1] and [3] keys at the same time for 3 seconds. (If unable to enter
address mode, power up and try again.) The current keypad address will be displayed, and the cursor will be under the “tens” digit. If 10 seconds have passed with no key entry, the keypad automatically exits address mode. You must power down, power up, and start address mode again.
NOTE: The keypad will not enter address mode if the panel to which it is connected is in programming mode. - Set the current address to “00”: Press [0] to clear the current “tens” digit. The cursor will move to the “ones” digit position. Press [0] to clear the current “ones” digit.
The cursor will move back to the “tens” digit position. - Enter the keypad’s address: Enter the proper “tens” digit of the keypad’s address. The cursor will move to the “ones” digit position. Enter the proper “ones” digit of the
keypad’s address. Note that address “31” sets the keypad to non-addressable mode. - Exit address mode: Press [✻] to save the displayed address and exit address mode.
VIEWING THE KEYPAD ADDRESS
Press and hold down the [1] and [3] keys at the same time for about 3 seconds. The current address is displayed. No key entry is allowed. Press any key to exit or wait 10 seconds to exit viewing mode.
FUNCTION KEY LABELS
A set of adhesive-backed labels with some typical function symbols (i.e., fire, police, personal emergency, etc.) is provided. These labels can be placed on or next to the keys to identify each key’s function for the end user (as determined by the control panel’s capability and programming; see the control’s instructions).

For operating instructions, see the User Guide for the control panel used with this keypad.
